Greetings All,
Received my Ace 250 today, all I can say is WOW! Compared to my 25 year old S-1, I am amazed. I thought I had cleared out an area of my backyard, well the Ace says no, there is a lot more junk here than that old dog could see. Even had the kids running it in less than 10 minutes, they are still having a little trouble with the de-tune concept. My neighbors daughter found another matchbox car in my back yard well a truck actually, that makes 3 so far, I wonder how many of these things are in my yard? The S-1 had found fifty one cents, the Ace found a penny... at least it is a 1964. Will be off to the woods tomorrow, old home site from the early days of the East Coast Railway, Henry Flagler days, I hit it lightly with the S-1 a few years ago, bet I find more tomorrow. We actually found more than is in the picture, it was too dark to take a picture with the cell phone when we were through. I feel very comfortable with this little machine, I had 4 days before it arrived to read and understand the words (and videos) on this and other sites, thank you one and all for the free training, have a great weekend!
